Our specialty is native plants, but we also seek out other rare and unusual plants worthy to be in your garden. At Shady Gardens Nursery, you will find rare Native Azaleas, Bigleaf Magnolias, Sweet Shrub, Gordonia, and Grancy Graybeard, as well as Daphne, Rohdea, and Hellebores. We also have a unique collection of Garden Gifts and Decor that includes one-of-a-kind Haitian Art, Iron Garden Decor, Garden Stakes and Hose Guides.

We now offer free shipping with no minimum order required. We do not ship bareroot, but we do remove the pot prior to shipping. We ship by USPS Priority Mail or UPS, our choice. Fall is by far the best time for shipping plants, but we do ship year round. When purchasing in summer, please remember that summer shipping can be tough on plants and plants shipped in summer heat might arrive with wilted or discolored leaves.

During the Fall, Winter, and Spring, we ship all orders quickly, but please allow 7-10 days for delivery. If delayed shipping is preferred in your case, let us know when you place your order by declaring that in the Special Instructions section of your order form. If you overlook that spot, just send us an email. Please contact us if you have any questions about our shipping practices. Shady Gardens Nursery is an online mail order nursery and not open to the public without an appointment.

We DO NOT ship plants during the heat of the Summer months. Plants prefer to be shipped and planted during the cooler months. We will resume shipping in the Fall when it is cooler. Orders received during the Summer months will be placed on hold and shipped in the Fall. You will be contacted with an estimated shipping date once cooler weather arrives. If you have questions, please send me an email:sharon@shadygardensnursery.com

***We cannot ship plants to Alaska, Hawaii, and the Coastal Western States: California, Oregon, and Washington, due to State Regulations. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Shipping might be delayed during peak gardening times of Spring and Fall or during periods of bad weather. You will receive an email from us when your package is shipped. Please contact us if you want more information about shipping of your order.
